谁在产生新的创新？假设个人知识在专业层面更深，迄今为止，知识管理理论主要关注如何在企业或团队层面实现多元化。然而，随着可应用于各个行业的技术的出现，现在人们认为即使在个人层面也需要知识冗余或知识重叠。因此，本研究利用区块链技术领域的专利数据，对个体吸收能力和知识冗余对创新绩效质量的影响进行了实证分析。通过分析，我发现个体吸收能力提高了创新绩效的质量，知识冗余和创新绩效的质量存在“倒U”关系。这种“倒U”形状告诉我们，当个人知识在新的先进技术的开发中变得过于专业化时，创新绩效的质量就会下降。讨论了未来研究的意义和可能的方向。
Who is generating new innovations? Assuming that individual knowledge is deeper at the professional level, knowledge management theory has, to date, focused on how to diversify at the corporate or team level. However, with the advent of technology that can be applied to various industries, it is now thought that knowledge redundancy or knowledge overlap is needed even at the individual level. Thus, in this study, I conducted an empirical analysis of the impact of individual absorptive capacity and knowledge redundancy on the quality of innovation performance using patent data in the field of blockchain technology. Based on the analysis, I found that individual absorptive capacity enhances the quality of innovation performance and that knowledge redundancy and quality of innovation performance have an “inverted-U” relationship. This “inverted-U” shape tells us that the quality of innovation performance declines when personal knowledge becomes too specialized in the development of new advanced technology. Implications and possible directions for future research are discussed.
